5. Listen To Your Heart

The day's sunset gave away to a peaceful moonlit night, something not very common. It's been a week now, since you two made the cave trip. George had successfully finished his huge castle, and was now helping Dream with his town.

Dream had finished his attached house piece. You helped him with the outside, letting him use some stacks of quartz and concrete for the walls. He managed to make the room fit in with your mansion's aesthetic, and really was a good addition. You had cleaned out the guest rooms, and spruced them up again, looking better than ever.

You three had a plan to beat the Ender Dragon. Dream and George would find blaze rods and ender pearls respectively, and you handled the supplies. You already had a good double chest going, full of bows, arrows, food, and beds. It was a real joy getting to know them not as celebrities, but as friends.

Friends.

This word crossed through your mind.

'Can Dream and I ever be more than just?'

.......

Dream stretched his arms. He had been contemplating this decision for days. He was sitting in the field where he and George first spawned. His mask was off. He slowly stood, and watched the moon rise. 

'I have to tell her. I can't be afraid.' 

he looked down at his mask. He picked it up, and swung his backpack to his side. He opened it and put his mask away. 

"No more hiding."

 He turned, and ran off.

George was walking back to his castle when Dream ran up to him. George stopped. "George! Do you know where (N) is?" 

"She's sitting on the roof of her mansion." George answered.

 Dream was about to run off to your house before George put a hand on his shoulder. 

"You're finally going to tell her?"

Dream exhaled, and nodded, glancing at him. George smiled. " I wish you luck and give you my full support."

 Dream smiled, and nodded at his best friend. George let him go and sped away. George smiled. 'don't worry dream. I bet she loves you too.'

You're sitting on the flat part of your roof, right leg stretched out and your hands resting on the ground behind your back. You were watching the stars. It was the perfect night for anything to happen.

"Hey (N)."

You looked over to your right, and saw Dream standing there. You smiled sweetly. "Hey Dream." 

He smiled shyly back. "Whatcha doing?" 

"Watching the stars."

 He noticed and came to sit next to you. 

"I notice you don't have your mask on." 

 He flushed and looked away. "Yeah. I needed a change for a moment." You had your eyes glued to the beautiful star filled sky.

 "You know, they say there is a star out there for everyone."

 Dream stared at you. You pointed up to one the stars, dream's eyes following. "That one is my star."

Dream remembered how one time, a fan, who was an astronomer, had told him what star he was. He moved his arm and you noticed. He pointed to the exact same star.

 "That star.... Is mine too." He stated.

You could feel the butterflies in your stomach. You were there, all alone, with nothing but your star. You set your hand near Dream's. Dream set his hand near yours. You wanted to hold hands. So much. So badly. But something was holding both of you back. You looked away from each other. Then, what was holding you back came up in both of your minds.
